Hi, I'm Katie, but you can call me Kat

I am a software engineer, for video games

I wasn't one of the kids that grew up coming home to a video game console, let alone a computer that had more than Minesweeper and Space Cadet Pinball on it. Most of my girl friends were the same way. It wasn't until my twenties that I started getting a taste of what I had been missing, and I fully thank my guy friends for that. Turns out I love gaming, mostly FSP and RPGs. So when it was suggested that I could actually combine my mathematically inclined brain with my passion for video games, and make a career out of it, I instantly needed to know more. A couple years and a Bachelor's degree later and I'm still loving every moment of it.

I have experience working on a few published titles including: Marvel’s Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N., Warp Driver, and an in-store experience for Intel and Best Buy. My main focus and passion is gameplay, with a growing interest in creating believable and relatable character AI as well. I find it tremendously rewarding to develop unique, immersive experiences to deliver to the players’ hands. I am currently looking for a studio, big or small, where I can collaborate and work with equally passionate people to bring new games to life.

If you would like to contact me, feel free to send an email my way.
